What would help improve my midface creasing while speaking? (Photos)

Question

In the last few years my midface has become very expressive/creased when I open my mouth/talk. At rest I don't have these lines. What would improve them?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

This kind of issue is fairly common, i.e. the appearance of parallel laugh lines to the sides of the corners of the mouth that become more pronounced with smiling.  The appropriate use of a cohesive, resilient HA filler fanned through the area helps to smooth and buttress these lines and make them much less prominent with smiling and emoting. Make sure to consult an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist and be certain to ask to see his/her personal before and after photos of the treatment of this region in this fashion. Best of luck.
